Word has it that Shen Shulin, the Immortal Lord of Wangchuan, has failed his trial of love yet again.
Everyone says he is aloof and noble, and knows nothing of love.
But he alone knows the woman failed her trial not because of him, but because of another man!
Now all the immortals in the Heavenly Court laugh at him.
The Immortal Lord of Wangchuan is furious. “I’ve chased after you lifetime after lifetime, and you think I’m just imagining things?!”
The Goddess of Hardship, Min Ku, gives a cool nod.
“We were never meant to be…”
The Immortal Lord grits his teeth. “Right. It’s only because I refuse to give up!”
Later, the Matchmaker arrives with the Book of Marriages.
The Lord of Wangchuan takes one look and realizes he stumbled into someone else’s match and got tangled up in another person’s red thread.
No wonder she tells him to get lost whenever she sees him.
The Immortal Lord of Wangchuan falls silent for a long moment, then looks up with a faint smile. “Forget it. Since I’ve fallen in love, I’ll just take you for myself.”
“Even if we’re entangled for ten thousand lifetimes, without end.”
“It’ll be a long, hard road, but luckily I have a long life. Unlike that short-lived nobody!”
Gu Xiaoman, the Goddess of Hardship, couldn’t care less about failing her trials of love time and again. There’s just one thing she can’t stand: the male lead’s love rival gets way too much screen time!
The Immortal Lord of Wangchuan: “Love at first sight is unreliable. Going through hardships together doesn’t necessarily mean love, either. Love grows with time.”
The Immortal Lord of Wangchuan: “Whatever you feel for someone else doesn’t count as love. What you feel for me is the real thing.”
The goddess: ???
Can someone please drag this overdramatic, unhinged love rival away?!
